MY MOTHER

An always around queen
A loving heart with a sight for positivity
An enlightened personality without certificates
That's my mother; fountain of love

She's got a beautiful ebony black skin
And she shines like polished pure leather
A set of eyes you could behold love staring at
Colours aren't worth the description

A calm enduring love
An always forgiving heart
Strong to a fault
Very independent; the pride of pa.

Mom make available without a greed
My mother loves like no other
Her zeal is second to none
Though nature has reduced her heights greedily

Springs of love sprout from her heart
Even in nightmares I hear a faint echo of love singing in her heart
She relents never just for our taste
The queen of hearts, my mother, lives a contented life for all man's joy

Loved it

This is a beautiful testament to your mom. It made me think of my mom. I lost her in 2001. There isnt a day that goes by that I dont think of her. Lovely poem! Thanks for sharing.
